The Kent State Massacre was an event at the University of Kent, Ohio, on May 4, 1970, in which four students were killed and nine injured (one of them suffered permanent paralysis) at the hands of the National Guard. that shot the students.
Some of the students shot were protesting the US invasion of Cambodia, which President Richard Nixon announced on television on April 30. Some students who only passed by or watched the protests in the distance also received shots near the university.
The shootings sparked protests from university campuses across the United States, and a student strike - causing more than 450 campuses across the country to close with two demonstrations. A common feeling was expressed by the students of the University of New York with a banner hanging from a window in which they wrote "They can not kill us all".
Five days after the shootings, 100,000 people demonstrated in Washington DC against the war and the murders of unarmed students. Photographs of the deceased and wounded of Kent State went around the world and the opposition against the invasion of Cambodia and the war of Vietnam intensified.
